What did YOU eat today?

Don't list the calories, don't list the exercise, don't list portion sizes.

None of those pesky numbers, since we all are different.

One person can need 1400 a day, while another can need 2,500, and it can be really triggering to see someone ate a lower number than yourself.

Therefore, just list the food you ate. This will help us understand the value of eating healthy food (for the nutrients), while also indulging moderately in empty calories when we want. I don't know about you, but I'm aiming for 90% healthy foods - and 10% empty calories. ;)

Also, do not post here if you are starving yourself. I'm not interested in the details, it is only going to get others riled up, and it is triggering to those of us trying to recover from an eating disorder. Okay, thank-you.

Here's me for today:

Breakfast: slept far too late
Lunch: sandwich (100% whole wheat bread, garden burger veggie medley patty, soy dijon "mayo", pickle, lettuce), dried apricots, diet soda, tums, vitamin
Snack: apple, no salt added raw almond butter
Dinner: corn, bell peppers, sugar-snap peas, lettuce, firm tofu, soy dressing, tums
Snack: soy delicious peanut butter zig zag! yumm.

Breakfast: a couple of cinnamon graham crackers with a little peanut butter

Snacks: sugar-free chocolate pudding cup, a big piece of watermelon

Lunch: a few slices of turkey lunchmeat, a little lettuce and tomato, all rolled up in a Wheat Mini Flatout, a smallish salad with FF Italian and six croutons, and a large peach

Dinner: a cheeseburger made with lowfat meat (and cooked on the Foreman grill), a smoothie made of 1% milk, a frozen sliced banana, four frozen sliced strawberries, and a container of strawberry-banana Light n' Fit yogurt

Hey guys this is a great thread, kudos to the idea of having a post where we can share what we eat through recovery without talk about weight/calories etc. because I know for myself, thats on my mind way too much already!

B: Golean Crunch with soymilk, yogurt with fruit
S: Apple
L: Sandwich made with 'fake' bologne, fruit, V8
S: Bagel with cream cheese and butter ( Not a 'snack' but, I needed the extra calories )
D: Hotdog on slice of bread with some shredded lettuce
S: I still need a lot more, so I'll figure that out later (:

B: Coffee with Fat Free Creamer and 1/2 cup OJ with my pills -50 calories

L: Ice coffee with Skim Milk and 2 slices of a small plain cheese pizza each slice 45 cal=90 calories plus 10 for the skim milk

S: 1 Beer (Iwas so darn hot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) -140 calories

D: We go out Friday evenings and I usually get a small steak with a salad and baked potato...the only time I eat beef...... 1/2 baked potato 90 calories with 1 pat butter 40 calories, salad with lite Italian dressing 100 calories, roll is 100 calories, steak (I eat half and bring half to my dog at home) 450 calories, with 2 glasses red wine at 200 calories. So the whole meal is about 1000 calories.

So......1290 is all I have for the day and thus can have another snack before bed tonight...
